ETIQUETTE: On the difficult matter of knowing that Chinese Capitalism is the only way forward for the next 300 years, and the heydays of Western Capitalism have eddied away, I take the brilliant attitude of the Australian Government's Scott Morrison, in terms of Cultural Cosplay, and, when Chinese guests arrive and ask if they should remove their shoes, I advise... take off only one shoe per person...this is quite enough.
